Hi Andrew,BrockleyAndrew wrote:Hello Will, I've searched back through 6 pages of your posts on various threads but can't find the one I remember - I think on one thread, maybe on soldering you mentioned that many years ago you weren't so keen on soldering and experimented with glues for metal? If I've got that wrong please correct me. I was interested to hear what you did, if it worked, what went wrong and what you learned through your experience. I'm interested in the longevity of gluing experiences. I can see that glue over time might fail. Given that I'm keen on plastic chairs on wood and have read on this forum about difficulties with slide chairs and metal rail location on plastic slide chairs and the epoxy/cyano debate I wonder what your view might be on metal/plastic/wood interface. I was prompted to ask you this from the recent thread on where we are going as P4 and you were defending metal kits, and also by the mention of card and shellac, which is described as no longer used, which I'm guessing it's not, but coming from a museum background it seems to me that paper and shellac will most probably last longer than experimental plastics. I've also read many track forum topics that talk about differentials of thermal expansion for different materials. Sorry, my question is vague I know. But since we mix materials and try to keep them together..... perhaps I'm asking what glues last or do they all go brittle and fail?
